Let's face it, I'm not known for my sartorial splendor, but I so enjoyed recently watching Scott Schumann taking photos on the mean streets of NYC. If you like looking at the world through the eye of your camera you might dig that video as much as I did. Which reminds me of a blog I added some time ago to my roll, Advanced Style. Which, I neglected to mention, but which is very worth your time. And that reminds me of another photographer I stumbled across this week somewhere which led me to John Maloof's blog: Vivian Maier - the CBS video segment there is fascinating. You can also find her HERE.
Whew. And all of that reminds me that Wyatt and I are getting ready to tuck in early with a book. A book I'm reading thanks to Jeanne (!) from snowy Kansas. C'est la Vie by Suzy Gershman. That I got for exactly 1 cent on Amazon used. It isn't good in the same way Dracula is good of course. Which is to say, I don't want to sleep with a glow in the dark crucifix by my bed or sleep with a garlic necklace on…but I'm certainly enjoying it!
Happy Friday.
just remembered. and nothing reminded me! forgot to show you THIS. click on WATCH THE FILM to peek into this super cool studio!
p.s. that reminded me of THIS…
Turns out that the daughter of one of my best friends is friends with John Maloof and his wife. What a gold mine he found in Vivian Maier’s photos – they are truly magical!

Can’t believe all the interesting, whimsical, and just plain amazing new things you’ve brought into my life. I love to visit you….thanks
I love corrugated cardboard so the vido was right up my alley.
Thanks for the story on Vivian Maier -WOW- loved it! And that picture of ?Wyatt?-just gorgeous.
Advanced Style is one of my favorite blogs. But then again, I am a good bit older than you are, so I need their advice right now! Love the video; thanks for that!
Who is the sassy kitty in the window? Gorgeous shot. It is all beautiful, but I do check in for my kitty fix also.
Hey Mary Ann, rocking journal page and I saw the cbs story on vivian. AMAZING stuff. Fun vid and cool inks as always.
Thanks for the great links Mary Ann. I cannot believe I’ve never heard of Advanced Style before today. I love the internets!
extra sweet kitty picture!
Happy Friday Indeed! Sent some monkey mail…it’s from the boy. Hope it makes its way across the snowy center of our nation to find you in sunny LA without too much trouble. Love the links, but I always love your links. Off to read, too. xo
